Professional Development for Middle School Educators: Making Connections Between Historical Memory and Contemporary Art
Professional Development for Middle School Educators: Making Connections Between Historical Memory and Contemporary Art
Educators are invited to explore the exhibition, Glenn Kaino: 19.83, two site-specific installations based on the October 16, 1968 medal ceremony for the men's 200-meter race at the Mexico City Olympic Games, when American athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos raised black-gloved fists as a symbolic act of protest. Participants will engage in a hands-on art making workshop, exploring creative strategies for the essential question, How might we use contemporary art making practices to explore historical memory? Educators will learn tools and resources for connecting learning standards across disciplines.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn about resources for educators, upcoming programs, and opportunities for your school.
Professional Development for Middle School Educators is FREE, and RSVP is required! Refreshments will be provided.
Educator programs are made possible thanks to a major grant from Wells Fargo.
